- Develop statistical and simulation-based models (e.g., forecasting, scenario analysis, Monte Carlo, Bayesian methods).
- Create structured scoring and weighting methodologies to prioritize risks across domains.
- Identify correlations between KRIs, incidents, qualitative assessments, and external intelligence.
- Conduct stress testing and scenario analysis for emerging/high‑impact risks.
- Support risk assessments, RCSAs, issue management, and risk treatment tracking.
- Collaborate with Security, Product, Engineering, and Compliance teams to understand data flows and strengthen risk monitoring.
- Use lightweight analytical scripting (Python preferred) to automate data pulls, normalization, and model refreshes.
- Develop reproducible analytic workflows and maintain model documentation.
- Support creation of risk dashboards with BI and engineering partners.
- Perform thematic deep dives on key risk topics (e.g., validator risk, slashing exposures, custody infrastructure risk, cloud outages, regulatory developments).
- Contribute to audit, regulatory, and Board inquiries related to risk metrics and methodologies.
Required:
- 2–5 years of experience in quantitative analytics, risk modeling, or data science.
- Hands-on experience with large-scale data analysis and statistical modeling.
- Comfort using Python, R, SQL, and data visualization tools (Power BI, Looker, Tableau) for analytical tasks.
- Strong foundation in statistics, model development, and data-driven decisioning.
- Experience analyzing complex datasets, building predictive models, and evaluating strategy performance.
- Ability to collaborate with cross-functional teams and communicate insights clearly.
Preferred:
- Experience in financial services, underwriting analytics, operational risk, or portfolio strategy.
- Familiarity with credit risk, loss forecasting, or policyholder modeling.
